The goal of this free (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0) text is to teach undergraduate students to perform basic quantitative sociology. The focus is upon analyzing high-quality, survey data using IBM® SPSS®, a powerful and popular data analysis software package. Students will first learn about descriptive statistics to summarize patterns in survey data. The second half of the text concerns the major inferential statistical techniques that enable sociologists to make generalizations about social phenomena observed in sample surveys to the larger populations that are being represented.
